Kimberly Wyatt & HMATW/Stars in your Eyes (Video)

2010-11-09T22:47:00.002+02:00

Kimberly Wyatt and her crew, HMATW with their new video "Stars in Your eyes". The song sounds miles better than what their buzz-single sounded like and the video looks professional and fine. She looks stunning in the video and if you missed it, the video also has Ashley Roberts, the ex-Pussycat Doll dancing with her. Very cool, still not as sharp as "Candy" but she is doing well on her own terms and we'll see how far this goes. Great to see her doing this, she sounds surprisingly good!

Kylie/Better than Today (Live)

2010-11-08T00:30:00.002+02:00

One uptempo performance from Kylie here, "Better than Today" performance from X-factor. She did so well, dancing and performing well throughout the performance. "Better than today" might not be the strongest single choice there is but at least it's great for live performances and she enjoyed it. She looked fantastic and it she almost tripped once with her high heels. Good one, Kylie!

Rihanna/Only Girl (Live)

2010-11-07T23:48:00.003+02:00

Rihanna performing "Only Girl" on EMA's earlier tonight. She did well, she performed with a stage filled with flowers like in the video. She looked cool and vocally was great, although she had heavy playback in chorus helping her. Personally, I was expecting something bigger since this was obviously a big award-performance and it wasn't anything new. But it's a cool performance from her.

Natasha Bedingfield/Strip Me (Video)

2010-11-04T21:49:00.002+02:00

Natasha Bedingfield and her new video for "Strip Me". She is featured on various of different scenes and the video is filled with styles. Natasha looks pretty and the song is alright. Both the video and the song are very Natasha and her fans will love it, but neither are her best work. I'm having doubts about "Strip Me" being a hit, after "Touch" pretty much flopped in US despite the promo and the quality of the song. But good work and can't wait for the album!

Christina Aguilera/But I'm a good girl (Video)

2010-11-04T21:47:00.002+02:00

Christina Aguilera on "Burlesque". This video and the hype around the project got me thinking, will it turn her luck in the charts?

P!nk/Raise your Glass (Video)

2010-11-03T16:58:00.002+02:00

P!nk and her new video for "Raise your Glass". It's another one to her fans that they'll enjoy but for me it wasn't as sharp as her brilliant videos before. The song and the video are bit samey and medicore because she usually puts out fine stuff. Anyway, this will be another hit for her probably and the video will get some great play on TV too. She should act more, because she is damn funny!

Rihanna/Only Girl (Live)

2010-11-01T18:54:00.000+02:00

Rihanna performing "Only Girl" on X-Factor. This performance had slightly different edge to it, it was bit remixed from the beginning. It was vocally better from the first performance too. She does have a struggle at times with this, but let's face it - this one IS hard to perform. She did great job and the set was very cool and different. Nice performance should bump up this song in the charts. I love the song!

Discuss.

Nadine/Insatiable (Live)

2010-11-01T18:48:00.002+02:00

Nadine Coyle giving her first performance of her debut solo single "Insatiable". The single is out today in UK and it's still unknown how well it could perform chartwise. But we do know how well Nadine performed in this, she did great job! Nadine has always been the most confident live performer vocally from the Girls Aloud and she shows it. Great performance from Nadine! I do miss Girls Aloud now but good luck to her however.

Kylie/Get outta my Way (Live)

2010-10-31T18:58:00.003+02:00

Kylie Minogue still promoting her latest single, "Get Outta My Way" in US television. This is her performance from Leno few days ago. This time she performed with a band and of course with live vocals and without dancers. It was fun performance and she did well and looked great. The performance did look bit stripped without consept and the routine but it was all cool. I'm going to see Kylie again on her current tour next spring when she heads to Helsinki. Also, our gig review of Gaga's gig is yet to come!

Nelly Furtado/Night is Young (Video)

2010-10-31T18:42:00.003+02:00

Nelly Furtado and her first single from Greatest Hits-collection, "Night Is Young". The video wasn't filled with budget and the song isn't filled with potential but everything looks and sounds nice and something her fans will like. "Night is Young" takes a direction closer to the dance-sound that has been popular mainstream sound for some time now, but it doesn't capture the best edge of hers. Despite the project feeling kind of medicore, Nelly Furtado is great and hopefully this song gains popularity somewhere.

Heidi Montag/I'll Do it (Next single!)

2010-10-31T18:28:00.002+02:00

Better late than never, I guess. Heidi Montag is releasing "I'll Do it" as the next single from her album with music-video. Heidi is taking some tips from The Hustler Strip club for the video, scheduled to be shot next week. "I'll Do it" was produced by Steve Morales and it represents the finest edge of her first album "Superficial". What surprises me, is that she is still pushing out singles but if it's this song, then I don't mind.

Discuss.

Rihanna/Only Girl (Live)

2010-10-31T17:44:00.002+02:00

Rihanna performing "Only Girl" on Saturday Night Live. I must say I was highly shocked about the low quality of this performance. She forgot lyrics, she had some crazy effect added to her vocals and if it was auto-tune, it was the worst one I've ever heard and it didn't do the trick. She did great job with her vocals at some points, especially in the end but this one was a hot mess. Hopefully she'll do better next time because this single deserves hot performances.

Discuss.

Katy Perry/Firework (Video)

2010-10-31T01:43:00.003+03:00

Katy Perry and her video for "Firework". The song has grown on me big time since it was confirmed to be released as a single. Especially the middle part of the song is fantastic, it's just too short. The video holds a symbolic meaning and it has beautiful scenes, Katy looks just gorgeous and the video looks quite expensive really. Sometimes the firework effects don't exactly look the sharpest they could've been but the video works. It's not her best video and overall it's very different from her previous videos but I like it. Her shock-colour highlighted hair looks great, she is really working a new style this era.

The Saturdays/Higher (Live)

2010-10-31T01:02:00.003+03:00

The Saturdays performing their single "Higher" on The National Lottery just before the single gets released next month. This performance was more dynamic than the previous ones since the live vocals had more showtime in it and the song was edited well. The new edit cuts down the useless end of the middle-8. Great performance, better outfits but I'd love to see more enthuastic dancing. As a dancer, I thought their moves looked bit lifeless and dull but of course they were focusing more on the vocals.

Discuss.

Nicole Scherzinger/Poison (Video)

2010-10-31T00:40:00.002+03:00

Nicole Scherzinger is back with new video for "Poison". This time around, the label seems to have reinforced their faith on her with some budget. The video was directed by one and only, Joseph Kahn. I think the video WAS somehow dissapointing with the lack of different scenes and the basic idea being kind of boring but it wasn't bad video. She'll gain fans with this effort and hopefully this will be her biggest hit so far, since this one is miles away from the material she had previously. Good job!

Discuss.

Robyn/Indestructable (Video)

2010-10-28T20:05:00.002+03:00

Robyn and her video for "Indestructable". The video is quite interesting and to be honest, it left me speechless. So I don't know exactly what to say. I'm dissapointed and kind of shocked.

Discuss.

The Saturdays/Higher (Live)

2010-10-28T19:56:00.003+03:00

The Saturdays promoting "Higher" to rise up to Top 20 this week. The girls performed the song live once again and it's good for them to show up their real vocals, because they CAN sing. Their outfits weren't all glamorous though and they looked as if they just walked into the set with their own clothes and make-up. Despite that, the performance was cool. Hopefully the single will be a Top 10-hit like it's supposed to be.

Discuss.

Darin/Lovekiller (Video)

2010-10-27T17:59:00.003+03:00

Darin and his suprising new video "Lovekiller". He took forever to release this video but now that it's here, we know what took so long. It must be his biggest video project yet and it's very visual and different from his previous videos. It's one bloody fest and could raise some eyebrows here and there. "Lovekiller" is a big song but somehow it never grew up on me like his previous hits did. It's very different and new but the new direction will either work well or not. We'll see.

Discuss.

Kylie/Get Outta my Way (live)

2010-10-27T17:36:00.003+03:00

Kylie Minogue promoting still her new single "Get Outta my Way" but this time on US Dancing with the Stars. She did well with the vocals and looked great, especially with the hair but it wasn't her strongest performance. It's weird how this song never took off and "All the Lovers" was bigger hit. If this wasn't a huge hit then I don't think the next one will be either.

Girlicious/Rebuilt-News!

2010-10-26T22:08:00.002+03:00

Official cover art and tracklist for Girlicious "Rebuilt" has been confirmed. Their manager also confirmed a deluxe edition being released too. The album is up for worldwide pre-order on their official store. "Rebuilt" is being released on November 22nd. Some of the fans were shocked since "Tell Me Lies" isn't included on the final tracklist, but it was reported that the song featured a sample from other song and they were forced to take it out for now. Also, previously leaked song "Television" and digital single "Drank" won't be included either.

Official single cover for Kylie's "Better than Today". The single is out in UK on December 12th and two days earlier in rest of the Europe. To me, it's weird choice for single.

VipMedia's Recommendation/Cheryl Cole

2010-10-25T21:47:00.002+03:00

Cheryl Cole's new album is being released soon and since it leaked, we decided to write a small review based on the few listens. Throughout the album has quite different feeling to what "3 Words" had, but it's not neccessarily bad. I actually like this album more. I feel like this one is stronger album but also in a way it's a risk. They were going for older sound with some new twist and from what I've seen, it has recieved mixed reviews. We picked some of our favourites but of course left some out, since we only wanted to highlight some of it. Enjoy and tell us what do you think!

Yeah Yeah
The song starts out bit boring but by the chorus, you are almost hooked. Verses might leave you cold, but the chorus really does the trick. I could see this being a safe-single at some point.

The Flood
At start it sounds like a medicore mid-tempo song that they go to christmas markets with, but the song is actually one of the catchiest ones from the album. The chorus sounds amazing and I'd kinda wanna hear her belting those high notes, followed by middle 8 with her raspy vocals.

Amnesia
This is a song I could imagine people considering dated and medicore but I love the song, the eastern vibe of it and the catchy melody of it. And how they didn't even try to capture THIS moment but to make something in between. My first favourite from the album.

Hummingbird
Very cute track overall with great instrumentals and cool vocals. It's interesting to see what edge she has found from her music and how different she sounds in a way. Chorus is very catchy and melody carries the song well.

Let's Get Down
It's funny to read reviews from elsewhere and how many consider this to be the strongest track on the album. It's catchy but in comparison to the rest it's rather pointless but it is true that it has strong dance base. It kind of feels like it's not bad at all but needed extra mile to make it a hit.

Happy Tears
This album is whole lotta tears but it's all good. This is the goodbye-track and lyrics are as bittersweet as you could imagine but it's very polished and beautiful track. After just seeing the hour-long interview of Cheryl talking about the hard times with tears in her eyes, this all just makes even more sence. Fantastic song.

Waiting
This is the track that samples Vanessa Carlton's "Thousand Miles" and does it pretty well without revolving too much around the sample. The song is one of the highlights of the album and it features amazing vocals by Cheryl and great melodies that make the song. One of the tracks I play alot already.

Cheryl Cole/Promise this (Live)

2010-10-25T01:34:00.002+03:00

Fine performance from Cheryl Cole. She performed her new single "Promise This" on X-Factor. Too bad the performance was clearly pre-recorded vocally and heavily autotuned. But she worked her nice new haircut, dark red hair with extensions and darker image. Cool performance and new style but sadly the vocals are now even more fake than they were before. And why did they choose this as the first single? This still isn't all that good nor the best one from the album.

Cheryl Cole/The Flood

2010-10-24T22:59:00.003+03:00

Cheryl Cole's amazing new album that is out in a week has leaked already and we can sure you that it's amazing. It totally is better than the first one. I also like the way they didn't always compromise with the songs just to make Cheryl "all current" and make her do what everyone else are doing, because the tracks are all quite diffirent and there is few gems that some could consider "dated" but they are amazing pop songs. I also totally love "The Flood" that is her next single. Full review will be up soon along with a review of Lady Gaga's gig that was pushed back due our hiatus.

Black Eyed Peas/The Time (The Dirty Bit)

2010-10-24T18:30:00.003+03:00

Black eyed Peas are about to release their first single off "The Beginning", called "The time (The Dirty Bit)". The song is a great follow-up to their dance-singles from previous album and it's bit like the uptempo singles from the last album smashed up together and slightly altered. It's a hot mess with different vibes pulled up together to became a hit and it probably will be another big one for them. Not their best track but it wasn't all that bad either. This song has recieved some mixed reviews after it leaked few days ago.

Taio Cruz ft. Kylie/Higher

2010-10-21T22:03:00.002+03:00

Taio Cruz has teamed up with yet another beautiful female artist. His new single "Higher" features Kylie Minogue and it leaked today. His previous single "Dynamite" was a huge hit and he recorded a remix for the track with Jennifer Lopez. Reportedly there is a video to be shot for the single and that it will be first out in UK. Kylie is also re-releasing her own album "Aphrodite" that was just released in June. The #1 album will be reissued with new tracks.

Rihanna/Who's that Chick (Video)

2010-10-20T22:27:00.002+03:00

Rihanna's promotional video for "Who's That Chick", or more like two of them combined. There is this cool version with two of them on one video that shows how well they were made. The Dark version does the tricks for me and she looks STUNNING in it. The campaign is great and the song is catchy tune and it's a shame they didn't think it was good enough to be included on the tracklist of "LOUD". Cool special for her fans!

Jessica Sutta/I Wanna be Bad (Video)

2010-10-19T21:54:00.003+03:00

Jessica Sutta following her footsteps of disbanded Pussycat Dolls line-up. While Kimberly Wyatt and Nicole Scherzinger have had success on their own and Melody Thornton is starting up, Jessica is up next with her first solo single. She has been featured on few dance singles earlier but this is from her upcoming solo effort. "I wanna be Bad" follows a sexy theme of the song and both of the song and the video are trashy as it's supposed to be. Trashy but fantastic. I bet this won't be a huge hit (Partly because it sounds bit dated really) , but one SASSY first single from this Doll. Wow.

Katy Perry/Firework (Live)

2010-10-18T22:28:00.003+03:00

Gorgeous Katy Perry performing "Firework", her next single on X-Factor. Great promotion for the third single. Personally, I was rooting for "Peacock" or "E.T" to be third single but "Firework" has grown on me so much. The performance was eye-catching and she looked great with her bodysuit and colour highlighted hair. Vocally, she was similar to what she was on the studio version but of course with more raw vocals. It wasn't bad or her best performance either but she did well. I enjoyed the performance!

One interesting project has been on for few weeks now. Willow Smith, best known from her famous father is just nine but she is releasing her first single already. Her first single "Whip My Hair" was just released as a video and the upcoming debut album will be out soon with date to be announced. The video is very stylish and fun. She has been called like a mini Rihanna and it could be proper nickname for her. Cool track and video!

It's been a while since we have been active and it's been down to my personal busy season really. No excuses, there was nothing posted simply. But it's all going to be back to normal shortly, so don't worry.

Meanwhile, there has leaked amazing bunch of songs and brand new singles. I absolutely love new Robyn (Indestructible), Nicole Scherzinger (Poison) and Take That (The Flood). Also, Kaci Battaglia's album was amazing and Cheryl Cole's album sounds like a Pop treat as well, based on the snippets. There has just been so many fine unposted stuff we missed! But I will get myself back on track with you guys! Get back and spread the word.

Miley Cyrus/Who owns my heart (Video)

2010-10-08T14:40:00.002+03:00

Miley Cyrus and her new video for "Who owns my Heart". The video's controvercy is probably already building up but besides all that coming, it's fantastic video. It's not full of meaning or storyline, but it has nice vibe going on and Miley looks SASSY in it. The video has this dark vibe and everything looks like something from ten years ago but with fresh edge. The song is amazing and I can't wait for the next single in Europe. They need to release "Liberty Walk".

The Saturdays/Higher (Flo Rida Version)

2010-10-08T14:35:00.002+03:00

The Saturdays have just premiered their new version of "Higher" video with Flo Rida. The version is slightly differently edited with few new shots but otherwise it's pretty much the same package. I kind of miss Mollie's and Una's close-ups rather than seeing Flo Rida but the editing in few shots was great. The song is shaping up to be a hit already, hopefully it will do well in the end too!

VipMedia News Flash/

2010-10-03T17:39:00.005+03:00

- Live Nation confirmed that 2011 will see brand new tours from Christina Aguilera and Avril Lavigne. No other details have been revealed, but I’m going to speculate and say that Aguilera’s tour will not only promote her failed fourth album Bionic , but also the soundtrack to her new musical-movie Burlesque. As for Lavigne, she’ll be touring in support of her upcoming fourth album, which currently has no release date but is expected some time within the first half of next year. Avril’s ticket selling potential is going to rest with the sales of her next album, and Christina is going to have to hope that Burlesque is big hit if she wants to play anywhere larger than theaters for the US leg.

- Sugababes have scrapped the plans to work on new album this year. No further sessions will be held this year, but they will start off fresh early next year. The girls have just released their line of perfumes and will take some time off the charts after their previous album "Sweet 7" flopped in UK.

- P!nk will premiere her next single on radio next week. She just confirmed that the next single is called "Raise your Glass". The single is from the upcoming release will follow her last single from "Funhouse" that was "Glitter in the air".

- Kylie Minogue will follow her current single "Get Outta my way" with new single from "Aphrodite" soon. "Better than Today", a song that was rumoured to be a single for long has been confirmed as third single off the new album. "Get Outta my way" has underperformed in UK, being left out of Top 10 this week, while it was expected to be a big hit.

Nadine/Insatiable (Video)

2010-10-03T17:16:00.002+03:00

Nadine and her new video for "Insatiable". The song has grown on me big time and it actually flows quite well. The video is simple but it's eyecatching and stunning and that was the main thing in it. Nadine throws in some sex appeal, leaning towards to more mature image and something different from her approach on Girls Aloud. I think she won't be as succesful as Cheryl and probably won't have collection of #1 singles with her material but it's not bad.

Sarah Connor/Cold as Ice (Video)

Sarah Connor and her fantastic new single "Cold as Ice" as a video finally. The video is flashy and well done and has various of different scenes and elements to it. "Cold as Ice" is fantastic dance-track and even though some of the time the effects look amusing and too raw in comparison to the polished scenes. Great video for great song.

Inna and her brand new video for "Sun is Up". She is getting bigger in Europe slowly, but there hasn't been huge crossover hits all over yet. "Sun is Up" is another catchy dance track and the video is very cute. It shows up Inna in different scenes looking beautiful and the whole set is quite photographic. Visually pleasant clip and great track. Nothing special but very nice anyway.

Shakira and her new video "Loca". The song has grown on me so much since it first leaked but the video is somewhat confusing. It looks better than the preview that was released earlier. The professional looking scenes on the beach look great and she looks quite fit (slightly too fit too) and she is giving a go to new hairstyle. "Loca" video represents the song well, showing off how "Loca" she is and showing the cool, enjoyable side of the song and also being bit tacky and cheap at the same time. It's not bad video, just different and probably low-budget one too. Interesting choice from the label but it should work.

Melody Thornton/Reveals stuff behind PCD!

2010-09-26T16:37:00.002+03:00

Melody Thornton gave exclusive interview to VIBE, telling them the reasons behind PCD breakup and news about her solo material. Some catty comments given!

Melody explained how it was like to be in the group and how the things got bad. "Moving into [the Pussycat Dolls] situation there was no Melody being herself. It was Melody fitting into a mold and a character and that’s what I did. I did it to the best of my ability. I got into the group to sing. That was made very clear to me. But it became more and more apparent what was going on. Roles were being minimized and minimized, and then by the time it got on the show, it was very much like ‘Yall play your part and this is what it is.’ It was tough because you don’t want to **** on your own opportunity."

When asked if she asked the label why she couldn’t sing lead as well, she replies: "After awhile you have to stop asking those questions and accept it for what it is. Life is more about acceptance than it is about trying to pick something apart when you’re wearing yourself out. We weren’t going to get an answer. That’s most important for people to understand. If Melody had an opportunity to sing, then she would’ve sang. Bottom line. But that wasn’t available to me and that’s fine."

She also spoke about the supposed fights between the group and especially between her and Nicole. "Well, remember when Whitney and Mariah did that song together? It’s like, clearly they did a song together, so it’s not all that damn bad. As long as we respect each other, it’s okay. She does what she does, and I do what I do, and that’s that. You’re either a forgiving person and you can move on or you can hold on to those things. I’m not one of those people. I’m not gonna be a victim to what happened. It’s over. Bye. Keep it pushing. Moving past everything that happened, she’s still a good person."

"We were definitely tired and worked a lot. I’m seeing these people more than I see my family. I would be hurt if anything happened to any one of the girls. Doesn’t matter what they said or did ever. You can love someone and let ‘em go. It was just time to move on. Alot of times, somebody’s in a bad mood and I can’t help but take that personally because it’s like, “What the **** was that?” Just the whole group setting is a nightmare. It’s hard to work in groups. It’s no secret that people who are creative are also very emotional. It’s tough. You take a whole bunch of Andy Warhol-ish people, put them in the mix, and you’re like, ‘Get along and do something together forever.’ That **** is not going to last. As much as I care for all of the girls, I’m going to do what’s best for Melody from this point forward. I need to do what I want to do.

She then reveals something from her solo material and asks the question, is her solo work similar to Pussycat Dolls material; "Well, it’s not similar because I’m singing it. [Laughs] Kidding. It’s gonna be fun, but at the same time, there’s an underlying message for people. Like I said, it’s important for the underdog to prevail at some point and reinforce faith in people. Music should move you. It shouldn’t just be fun. It’s not all about fun. Life is about ups and downs, so that’s what my music will have.

For me, it’s important for people to know that I do write. I will be writing the majority of what I am singing because it’s important to me for an artist to actually be talking about something that came from them as opposed to being manufactured in that way."

Jessica Sutta/I Wanna be Bad (First solo single)

2010-09-26T16:31:00.002+03:00

Jessica Sutta, ex-Pussycat Doll gave an exclusive "performance" of her first solo single "I wanna be bad" last night. The video of the performance is resonably good quality so you can hear the song well, that's why we posted this. The song is very sassy, catchy and up-tempo treat that every fan should love. It's not far from how Pussycat Dolls were but it's closer to what Jessica is and how I imagined her to sound like. Purrfect.

Nicole Scherzinger/Solo album "will surprise"!

2010-09-23T20:01:00.001+03:00

Nicole Scherzinger has revealed that her debut solo album will surprise people. The Pussycat Dolls frontwoman, who currently stars as a guest judge on The X Factor, has been working with Lady GaGa's producer RedOne on the LP, and believes that fans will be caught off guard by the album's sound.

"My new music maybe isn't going to be what people necessarily expect, so I think it's a good thing. I've been working with RedOne, which is an honour. He's an unbelievable producer and musician. He had made some amazing songs with Lady GaGa. Now, there is someone with the 'x factor'. I can't touch GaGa or RedOne in that space, but I know that we've created something unique of our own."

Addressing rumours that her original debut Her Name Is Nicole was scrapped by her label, she said: "It was my choice to not put out the album. I wasn't dropped. In fact, a lot of my solo songs went on the second Pussycat Dolls album Doll Domination so I'm happy that people were able to hear songs like 'Happily Ever After' and 'When I Grow Up'. The song 'I Hate This Part' was originally for my solo album, too."

Girlicious have confirmed that their long-waited second album "Rebuilt" will be out on November and that they will be shooting a new video soon. After releasing "Drank" in US and "Maniac" not been that well recieved in Canada, they've managed to get some success in Canadian radio with their new single "2 in the Morning". The single is climbing in the charts and the girls have said that if it does well, their label could be releasing it worldwide. They will shoot a music-video for sure in coming weeks.

The girls have been busy with their small promo-tour and looks like some of the hard work might be paying off. If you are from Canada, request the song from your local station.

Cheryl Cole/Promise This (Video)

2010-09-19T01:28:00.003+03:00

Cheryl Cole and "Promise This" video that was premiered earlier. While I'm still quite undecided even after having HQ version of the song, the video is something I can review properly. The video is surprisingly dark from how I thought it would be and it sort of follows the theme from the first album which is kind of a let down. It's like a step from "Parachute" and not like ten steps she'd need to kick off the new era. The video does have it's moments though where Cheryl is gorgeous and the styling has been top notch. But to be honest, I was expecting more from both song and from the video. It's a bit samey.

The Saturdays/Higher (Video Premiere)

2010-09-19T01:13:00.004+03:00

The Saturdays just premiered their new video for "Higher". This version of the video is the album version without Flo Rida and it looks fantastic. The quality of the video is huge upgrade from "Missing You" and they all look cool. The video has great scenes and overall nice positive energy around it. Personally I thought it needed couple more scenes from the girls and less about the extras but the video works so well like this. Must be one of their best videos and could be their first one to be put out to be their breakthrough in US. Label is apparently planning it at some point and they already have their own artist page in US itunes but they haven't released anything yet. "Higher" is great track and I look forward to seeing the second version with Flo Rida if it has some new scenes from the girls.

The video hasn't recieved many positive reviews so far but I thought it didn't look as cheap as I thought it would look. There just wasn't many different scenes used. Not bad video, but it wasn't the best one either. I'm just impressed that the girl shot three videos anyway.

The Saturdays perform "Missing You" acoustically on the final episode of their reality show "The Saturdays 24/7". The performance showcases their vocals well and how different but yet beautiful their vocals are, even without the well produced material. I usually hate acoustic versions because they lack energy and destroy the songs what they were about, but this one was good for people who constantly have doubts about their talent. Nice performance girls and very sad that the show is over, I really enjoyed it. It was very entertaining.

Cheryl Cole/Promise This (Radio Rip)

Cheryl Cole premiered her first single "Promise This" yesterday and it's from the upcoming album "Messy Little Raindrops" that is out on November 1st. The single kicks off instantly with way more electronic way than the previous singles and it sounds like something from Girls Aloud/The Saturdays rather than something from Cheryl. Well, it's her and the song has few catchy hooks too but it sounds like a hot mess from the clip. I'm horribly undecided before hearing the HQ version. Cheap production and messy hooks can all be from the bad quality radio rip, who knows?

The single AFTER "Promise This" will be ballad called "The Flood" that has been described as "massive, string laden, christmassy tear jerker about "wreckage" and "drowning" and "natural disaster love". But for now, let's just focus on this single.

Kelly Rowland and her stylish video for "Rose Coloured Glasses". I expected the video to be very simple with some effects added afterwards, but the clip actually looks quite great. It IS simple and it does have some effects but it's also very sophisticated and powerful. The video didn't have much going on, just Kelly in number of outfits in different scenes and one storyline-type of scene. But overall it really was enjoyable and some scenes MADE the video. The song is absolutely amazing and for sure one of her best songs ever and this SHOULD be Top 10 single if anything. It's fantastic work, real upgrade. I'm glad she released the video even when she pushed back her album to next year.

Nadine Coyle has reportedly revealed to friends that she has quit Girls Aloud. According to the Sunday Mirror, the singer has vowed never to perform with the group again and is referring to her time with them as "the past". A source said: "Nadine's moved on. She loved her time but feels lately things changed dramatically. She doesn't intend to perform with them again and is openly telling pals she's no longer part of the band.

"She talks about being with them in the past tense. It's like a new chapter in her life is beginning - the future is her solo career. They are not in touch at all. Nadine swears she's tried to get in touch with them all but not heard anything back. They've grown apart. With the amount of animosity they have against her now it would be almost impossible for them to regroup. She has to make her solo career her priority."

Coyle recently announced the tracklisting for her debut solo album Insatiable.

The Saturdays performing "Missing You", their current single LIVE for the first time in television. The group performed in a consert for Heroes, in same stage with Robbie Williams. Five ladies did great job providing their vocals each to their electro ballad and even Frankie pulled it off. This will do great promo for their new album "Headlines" that stands solidly a second week at #13, securing their fourth week in Top 20 with more than 50 000 copies sold. "Missing You", instead fell down to #26 but could be higher next week if the performance does it's job. Great one, girls!

While Vanessa White almost messes up the beginning, the girls did great job performing "Ego". They had very sharp vocals today, right? Great job with your performances. They also performed "Just Can't Get Enough" in the broadcast.

Anyway, Kylie is touring next year and I'm going to be seeing her in Finland when she returns here. So, just wait for confirmation about VipMedia Goes Live... very soon.

Lady Gaga expectedly went and won a huge pile of VMA's this year. Gaga won eight of all the categories she was nominated in and confirmed to fans that her next album is called "Born this Way". The last night's award show had biggest stars in the red carpet from Cher to Katy Perry and from Ke$ha to Eminem. The performances were bit boring this year, the most interesting ones being probably the Eminem/Rihanna duet and Robyn's surprising fifteen seconds of fame. Taylor Swift and Kanye West were "reunited" in VMA stage, but they did their own performances to the audience. Gaga stole the show and that was pretty much it for me. VMA's weren't bad this year but it's almost like nothing happened.

As for today, I thought it would be nice to post some new tracks as Instrumentals, as they are always well recieved in VipMedia. We have handful of brand new ones for you to enjoy and sing along. There is one probably half-unofficial included from Britney's "Rock Me In" but it must be the best fanmade instrumental I've heard. It sounds exactly like the orginal one but it's just not as good quality as it should be. I'd call it official but I don't know why would it suddenly appear? If you found something, send feedback and we might just continue doing these things.

Her vocals are powerful and free and she sings with passion. It's quite catchy now as a full track but doesn't leave lot to your head. It's not made to be the easiest made Pop just to please all ears and it's quite cleaver but it still leaves me half cold. Or like in the halfway of thinking was it really good or just medicore.

The song is a sudden change of sound on his album that is mostly very electro-based, this is more like a step back to his orginal sound. Well, maybe something in between but it seems to work. The video is fun and even though we've seen the idea used thousand times, it doesn't get boring or less funny this time around. Delta and Brian make great job with their acting, finally some facial expressions from Brian that aren't dull.

Speaking at a press conference for her new movie Burlesque, she said: "The creative process that involved Bionic is over, I did what I wanted to do and I'm satisfied with it. If the album sells or if the songs are a hit, I don't care and I don't need to know it, I did my part and I gave 100% while I was doing it, and I'm proud of this work."

Discussing the film, she added: "Burlesque was a different process, I'll support this project until the end, but not to find out if it was a box office hit or not - that is not what motivates me. The creative process is my thing, I'm an artist and once something is over, I look forward for what is next, and I don't look back."

Their chemistry is very sensual and passioned and the video reflects the song well. It is orginal, it's edgy enough but sort of gets boring easily too. The lyrics are well included in the video and all, but one thing was such a put off for me throughout the clip. Jojo didn't look great at all, with some bad lighting and cheap video work that didn't do good for her dark makeup and locks. She looked grown, sexy but most of the time, the scenes showed her in raw way, not in the most attractive way. Maybe it's just me?

The video then continues to mirror scenes where the pair are seen fully, but Nicole not fully dressed. Nicole shines in see-through lace skirt with red underwear under it. All of the darker scenes, playing with the neon lights look fantastic, very soft and not too erotic. Overall, it's great video and not the most typical Iglesias video we've seen so it makes a difference. "Heartbeat" is soft, romantic and electric Pop-track that should became a minor hit at least with good promo. Hopefully it'll get some.

Natasha Bedinfield/New album and single info!

2010-09-08T15:17:00.000+03:00

"Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Natasha Bedingfield will release her third studio album, 'Strip Me,' on Nov. 9, she tells PopEater exclusively. The album's titular lead single will hit digital music outlets on Sept. 21.

Recorded in LA and set for release on Phonogenic/Epic Records, Bedingfield's new record came from more than 50 songs she wrote in the last few years of traveling and performing around the world. The final result was "stripped" down to 13 songs.

"I've been touring for so many years now that I wrote with my live gigs in mind. I wanted to write anthems that people could sing along to -- things that were still personal, but definitely trying to find the best way to connect with people," the singer tells PopEater.

Speaking about the title track, Natasha says, "In the chorus, it goes, 'Build me up, or cut me down to size / Shut me out but I'll just scream / I'm only one voice in a million, but you ain't taking that from me.' People can treat you any way, but that doesn't change who you are. We're not defined by the situations we're in, but by what's inside. And we forget about the power of each person's voice."

Bedingfield has sold more than 10 million singles and albums worldwide, and has had five top 10 U.K. singles. In the U.S., her 2006 debut brought her a No. 1 single with 'These Words.' Her last album, 'Pocketful Of Sunshine,' debuted at No. 3 on Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart upon release."

Katy Perry/Teenage Dream (Live)

2010-09-06T19:26:00.002+03:00

Katy Perry performing her new single "Teenage Dream" live on Andy Carr Show in UK. The performance was good promo for the single, since it debuted in the UK charts at #2 already. Katy doesn't always hit the right notes but her performances give her a freedom to spread her vocals in new ways and make the song sound different. At least she does perform live. It's not all that bad.

Nadine/Insatiable (Snippet)

2010-09-06T15:29:00.002+03:00

Nadine, the member of Girls Aloud is ready to reveal the album and single news and this morning, snippet of "Insatiable" leaked. The song sounds like it could be a radio-hit in UK, but I can't see it being big anywhere else and can't see it being bigger than Cheryl Cole's efforts. "Insatiable" is alright track, but not totally my cup of tea. How about you guys?

Regi ft. Kaya Jones/Take it Off (Video)

2010-09-05T17:41:00.003+03:00

Brand new video for the Ex-Pussycat Dolls member Kaya Jones. "Take it Off" is collaboration between Kaya and Belgian musician Regi. Kaya was a Pussycat Doll before the group became a household name with their debut album and she added her vocals on two songs before leaving for solo career. After modelling, she has been focusing on music and this could be her big hit. "Take it Off" isn't something we haven't heard before, but it sounds great and her vocals really shine on the dance track. I could imagine this being a club/radio-hit in Europe.

Monrose/This is Me (Live)

2010-09-05T15:45:00.002+03:00

Monrose performed their new single "This is Me" previously on The Dome 55 and this is how it looked like. They also performed with Jason Derulo later that night. The girls performed with playback vocals but recieved great feedback from the audience. Reports from Germany claim the group is struggeling with this single and the final chart placing is still unknown but hopefully they won't flop badly, since the album and first single sales and peaks were good.

The Saturdays/Behind the scenes of "Higher"

2010-09-05T15:36:00.002+03:00

A Brand new behind the scenes video from the set of The Saturdays "Higher" video shoot. They shot the video on the streets of LA and the girlgroup definately looks like they are enjoying it. Fans have judged that the street scenes look quite similar to what we've seen with Pussycat Dolls, but to be honest "Work" was more PCD-like than this one is shaping up to be. Looks great and different from their previous videos and Frankie is blonde! Hopefully Flo Rida doesn't rip off the song badly with his parts, because this could have the potential to be a huge hit for them.

Cheryl Cole/Snippet of "Promise This" leaked!

2010-09-03T17:51:00.003+03:00

Cheryl Cole is releasing her new single "Promise This" to radios very soon and she is breaking down the silence with some news about the single and album next week. The single itself hasn't been premiered yet but early LQ snippet of it has leaked and it sounds fantastic. It's uptempo and very POP in comparison to her earlier, very sophisticated style in music. The video for the song is filmed this week and it will directed by Sophia Muller, who is responsible for videos like "Hips Don't Lie" by Shakira, "Catch You" by Sophie-Ellis Bextor and also did number of videos to stars like Beyonce, P!nk, Gwen Stefani and Leona Lewis.

Kylie/Get Outta my Way (Video)

2010-09-03T17:42:00.002+03:00

Kylie just premiered her new video for "Get Outta my Way". The video starts up like the official preview but continues in much better form. The half-nude male dancers once again got way too big part in the video, but Kylie saves the video with her gorgeous looks. She looks fantastic in every outfit and despite the video being shot completely in studio, it doesn't look all the cheap. Apart from few scenes, it looks like they actually had great budget and Kylie looks better than in a long time. The choreography is close to what it was in the performances, but I kinda wished for more movement in the clip itself. But cool video and much better than "All the Lovers".

The Saturdays/Higher (Live)

2010-09-03T00:44:00.002+03:00

The Saturdays giving their first TV performance of "Higher", their next single. The performance aired on The Saturdays 24/7, the group's reality show on 2nd of September when the second episode premiered. "Higher" will be released with a remix featuring Flo Rida but they performed the album version in the show. It was obviously pre-recorded vocally too but they could totally be alright with real live vocals, when they do start to promote the song. They have the potential to do it well. "Higher" is fantastic track, but is it only me when I think this isn't their best single yet really and that it's bit overrated already? It's not any bad but it's not their best song either.

The Saturdays/"Higher" to include Flo Rida!

2010-09-01T22:37:00.003+03:00

The Saturdays have been confirmed to release "Higher" with Rapper Flo Rida collaborating in it. The American rapper who went to number one twice, leaving The Sats behind offered his help to the girls to collaborate with them. The group shot their part of the video earlier this week with Flo to reportedly shoot his parts soon. The newly remixed Single version is expected to be premiered very soon with release later in October.

The single is expected to be a seller, because it has been claimed to be their next hit early on and the remix would only feature in the single.

Shakira/Loca (New Single)

2010-09-01T22:19:00.002+03:00

Shakira's new single "Loca" leaked earlier today. It's close to her columbian roots, it's close to her previous material before she went all Pop with "She Wolf". "Loca" is repeative and quite diffirent from the music out right now but it's very recognizable. It's far too early to say anything about the song from the first listen, since it's not quite my favourite one from her or instant hit. But it could have something. I'll wait for the english one.

Jojo/(I only know him) In the Dark

2010-08-30T19:55:00.002+03:00

Jojo shot a video earlier this year for "(I Only Know Him) in the Dark" but the project got shelved, because the timing wasn't right. Now she has released the song finally and is taking a new direction musically. Mixtape that she'll release on September 7th is called "Can't Take that away from Me" and it's released from tracks that aren't included on the next album that is yet to be released. The song sounds interesting, but quite appealing and does showcase a new Jojo indeed.
